Well, Bannon has been inspiring me lately. Against my usual motto on fanart, I probably spent a good hour on this piece. I had this really strong urge to do some experimenting with colour, so I came out with this. The colours that were produced were made by lots of mixing (lots and lots of mixing). I really enjoyed doing this piece and I find it to be one that I actually like. There was no underdrawing nor any line in it. It's straight pigment. It's a bit more of a challenge when you're doing it this way, but to me that makes it more of an adventure.

Very nice, very real looking. I could definitly recognize him as Bannon were I to see this picture elsewhere. He is certainly a happier Bannon (in my opinion) than he is normally portrayed. Also, his face looks a bit slim.
I wish I could better articulate how nice this picture is... but my brain is sushi at the moment. |

This is a very good art of Bannon. nd I agree with iain : he seems less troubled than in his menu pic.
His bushy hair is incredible. |

I think that your colors are fantastic. I love the way you used bright hues (like violet, for example) in his face, where you wouldn't usually expect to see them, but blended everything together so well that the picture looks realistic anyway.

Great, great, and more great. He looks like he's about to caste Health on me (teehee).
Seriously, it really brings the guy to life. -------------------- Get me off this Disciplinary Committee so I can play any FF except for FF8!!! |

This is a really beautiful drawing. I wish I could paint that well.

This is a beautiful picture. It brings the humanity into Banon's character. Bravo!
